4 TENDER INCIDENT.

In closing his sermon on the occasion
of the Beecher obsequies, Rev. DR..
Hall related pathetic, tender, touch
ing incident of the night when the
great preacher left Plymouth church
forever. He said:
a brave and noble preacher is here
at rest; brave of old to dare brutal
force and defy the violence of mobs and
ruffians in speaking of the slave; brave
to accept the murmurs and doubts of
his political friends, when conscience
prompted to part from them; bravest
to wrestle along with a great sorrow
when he could find no earthly help.
We honor him for the courage of his
former acts: we love him, and wonder
at him for the calm, sweet, gentle re-
Signation of these last years. God, /
believe, has led him step by step to
spend his last days among US with
a wisdom gained from the cross; a
tender, gentle, sober wisdom, which
helped him to see the Captain of our
salvation who was made perfect
through suffering. On his last Sunday
evening in this place, two weeks ago,
after the congregation had retired from
it, the organist and one or two others
were practicing the hymn, Il heard the
voice of Jesus say, Come unto me and
rest" Mr.. Beecher, doubtless with
that tire that follows a pastors Sunday
work, remained and listened. Two
street urchins were prompted to wan
der into the building and one of them
was standing in the position of the boy
whom Raphael has immortaliZed, gaZ-
ing up at the organ. The old man lay
ing his hands on the boys head,
turned his face upward and kissed him,
and, with his arm about the two, left
the scene of his triumphs, his trials,
and his successes forever. 1t was a
fitting close to grand life-the old
man of genius and fame shielding the
little wanderers; great in breasting ira
ditional ways and prejudices, great also
in the gesture, so like him, that recog-
niZed, as did the Master, that the hum
blest and poorest were his brethren
the great preacher led out into the
night by the little nameless waits. The
great Life of Christ is left unfinished
teachings into the story. Men
will praise our brother for ge-
MUS, patriotism, victories, and in
tellectual labOrs. My love for him has
had its origin in his broad humanity,
his utter lack of sham, his transparent
love of the JUNCTION from above that
dwells in and teaches and beauties the
lines of duty. He said of his father:
THE two things which he desired
most were the glory of God and men,"
So it was with him, as the hearts of
grateful myriads attest. But we bid
him here farewell; and to me, oftenest,
will come the vision of him passing out
yonder door with his arms about the
boys; passing on to the city of God, |
where he hears again the familiar |
voice of the Master saying: ''Of such |
is the kingdom of heaven. ,"
OF all the incidents in Mr.. Beecher's /
busy and useful life, none will linger |
longer or more sweetly in the public |
than this,

METRODIsN AND PROHIBITION.

METHODIST AND PROHIBITION.
The ministers of the Southwestern
Kansas Methodist conference, Just
closed at Winfield, have taken a radi-
cal position on the temperance ques
ton and one in advance of any yet
taken in this state. As the Murray bill
provides for the signatures of twenty
five women before a permit can be
granted for the sale of liquors under
the constitutional provisions, the con
ference declares that it will use every
endeayor to prevent the signing Of
these names. 1t exhorts the Women's
Christian Temperance Union to circu-
late petitions in all the cities and
towns Of Kansas to induce women to
refrain from signing the request for
such permit. 1t will be seen that if
it is made impossible to get permit to
sell liquors even for medical, mechanic
cal or scientific purposes, that prohibi-
ton will really prohibit more thor
oughly than even the projectors of the
constitutional amendment intended it
shOuld

Murder Of r. W. Morgan.

Word was received in this city Sum
day of the murder of R. W. Morgan
at Manitou Springs, Col, on last Fri
day. He was an old resident of EN-
poria and brother of J. w. Morgan,
who removed to Wellington a short
time ago. 1t seems he had been work
ing for man named Brown and want
ed his money, but the latter claimed
he did not owe him any, and in the al
tercation that ensued Brown stabbed
Morgan through the heart, killing him
instantly. There was some talk of
lynching the murderer, but at latest
accounts it had not been done. John
W. Morgan is in the city, and is ex-
pecting the body. and it will be in
tered in Dry creek cemetery on its ar

Another Great Enterprise Attracted
80 Our Growing City.
The following letter to one of our
leading furniture men speaks for itself
and shows that Emporia and her bril-
liant prospects are known in the east:
J. s. Kenyon, Emporia, Kansas:
DEAR SIR: Our agent, tells
us he had some conversation with you
concerning the question OF manufac-
turing furniture in your city. /
dropped the remarks in his hearing,
that the question of freights had be-
become a large factor in placing our
goods in the Texas and West Missouri
river markets. which together with the
growing scarcity of furniture lumber
in our immediate vicinity, and the
growing number of factories in the
west and south and the decrease in
margins might very soon loose US the
advantages we have hitherto had, and
necessitate amoVement of our business
either west or south, hence, his CONVEX
sation with you.
1t is an undisguised fact that money
is what we are all working for and as
soon as we become convinced that a
move would make us money we will
make it.
The question is, what advantages are
to be obtained by a move to your city
Which desire to suggest; and to OBJ
tain better idea ask the following
questions:
What timber is there in your vicin-
ity? and in what quantities? What is
the present price of walnut lumber. l
and 2, green and dry? What the price
of poplar, cottonwood or linn, or any
other suitable for inside work?
What the price of coal; and slack?
What wages do carpenters and ma
chine hands make? What are your
city, township, state and county taxes
on the 9100? What water power have
you, If any? Are races already built,
and what is the charge per power per
annum? Are there any desirable sites
unOceupied? What railroad facilities
have you in prospect? What facilities
for extinguiShing fires? Have you any
city water works?
What inducements would your city
make?
Could, in your opinion, stock COM
pany of $50, 900 be organized?
We are thoroughly acquainted with
the business, have been very success
full here and do q business of S15G, COO
500, 900 per annum. Paid out last
year over $4O, 600 for labor. Employ
over 100 hands. We are doing too well
here to run any risks by q move. If
we, however, can see good thing and
get into the more growing markets, We
are ready for it.

There were several other candidates,
